About Me:

I have been a knitter since I was a teenager, right now I am working on shawls, socks and Barbie clothes for my Granddaughters. Sheldon looked interesting for my Grandsons for Christmas Most of the items I knit I give away, always have hats for the little ones, just hate to see uncovered heads when it is cold out. Take them to Church and give to all little ones that have a bare head.

Finished Sheldon and I like him, very easy after I made all my mistakes on the first one. Maybe I can finish another one before the speed knitting starts.

Had a bad storm soon after I got home from the office and I think we are going to have another one. Continue

Place markers at every 12th sts.

Row 2 - Purl

Row 3- Knit

Row 4 - Purl

Row 5 - * Sl 1-K2tog - psso , K4 , Yo, K1, Yo, K4 * Rep

Row 6 - * P3 tog, P4, Yo, P1, Yo, P4 * Rep.

Row 8 - * Sl 1-K2tog - psso , K4 , Yo, K1, Yo, K4 * Rep

Row 9 - * P3 tog, P4, Yo, P1, Yo, P4* Rep.

I have made this in multiples of 8 or 10 or 2 or 3 for a scarf you can make it as large or small as you wish and whatever yarn you like.

I made the one I posted a picture of with 96 sts. + 8 (4 at each end that are knit on all rows)

I think the pattern works out best if you add a few knit sts at each end.

Yarn I used was #3 you could try a DK like City Tweed or Swish or gloss or elegance

Needles 5mm circular 80cm long

I finish it with row 1 and 1 row of knit then cast of I have to check this out I’m not sure if that is right.

How about West Virginia?
Would have please even if took the present of the tortoise; sleep, and my family is near, and is not.
I live in big city Tokyo, but the parents do rural living in the distance of approximately 3 hours by Shinkansen.
I will go to parents of the master next week because it is a summer vacation of the master. This is around 2 hours by air, too.
I knit my summer dress from now on today. The underpants for summer of the son sewed cloth and made it. As for the clothes for summer, the thing of the boy is serious.
Because that place seems to be hot, please be careful about a body.

Thank you for the comment.
It sees in response to a question. I am about ten years though am after it takes up one's knitting also the blank on the way. It comes to knit than before after the child is born, and the children's wear is knit chiefly.
It is hot because of the blue sky with a cloudless here every day.
Please forgive me because the mother tongue is Japanese though my translation of Japanese might be amusing. It presents knitting to the grandchild, and it is wonderful.

It has been impossible to get to guild.I have a 2 1/2 year old and and 1 1/1 year old in FT.Thomas that keep me traveling when I am not in school. I am knitting my first prayer shawl for a lady at church. I would like to start a Shawl Ministry at church but am still in the thinking phase.
Thanks for leaving me a message. Pat

Hopefully, they will be cheered a little bit with their shawls. I'm glad I bought yarn last week -- these illnesses came up at the last minute.

I retired on March 31st from counseling at Herbert Hoover, so I am pretty free with my time -- knitting and reading a lot. be sure to let me know when you come in next time.
